    Man that sucks you got to wait so long, but Im sure you will be pretty happy with it overall.  What do you think about not having the pinion snubber Alan?

    the pinion snubber is really no issue , on the street they are awful banging on the floor constantly , the only time you can use them is on the track

    not a big issue , as I have said before you can weld a brace into the floor & make a threaded snubber from the floor down or just rework the suspension in other ways to enhance traction

    Even though I am out of town right now, I called to see how much my dana ended up costing me. I did not request new axle assemblies, but they installed them anyways. I was going to buy my axles from Doc diffential. They got mosier stock replacements for me, So I am ok with that

    971.52  was the total with tax. I got a 354 dana 60, 35 spline power lok and axles. Just install my backing plates and drums.  I dont think I could get one much cheaper then this price :burnout:

    I stand corrected. It was 971.46    and is now setting in my shop and ready for me to install backing plates and drums.  Man the dana is heavy picking it up by yourself. Gotta get the driveshaft shortend up a bit, add (2) 3/4 ton truck springs to the leaves, and install.

    Sad part about everything is that I fly out to st Paul, Mn this sunday, then come hm for august 27 28 29 then back out for 3 weeks in Enid OK before I get to play again.

    Kenny :bigsmile:  I filled out my pass port today. But I think they want me to go to Russia for 200 hrs. But I am trying to get to your Island. :swaying: Give me time, and we will meet up :2thumbs:

    Here's what I picked up from the speed shop for 971.46    I supplied the dana 60 truck housing with a single track 354.  They sold me the 35 spline powerlok and installed it for 250 bucks, then put 2 quarts of sure grip lube in for 11 bucks
